🌎 The demand for paper products is still high. 15% of global deforestation is caused by toilet paper products.

16 Million trees are literally flushed down the toilet every year in the form of toilet paper! More than 27,000 trees are cut down each day just to make toilet paper each day. 

Approximately 90% of the world’s paper is manufactured from wood pulp, and only 1% of paper is made from non-wood sources in the United States. 

It can take decades for a forest to be able to clean the air from constantly produced pollution, and making paper from these forests is far from sustainable. 

Every year, over 900 million trees are harvested for the purpose of producing paper.

These harvested trees can take over 30 years to regrow.

In Australia alone, over 3 million trees could be saved if we all switched to bamboo. 

The more people who switch to Tree-Free paper, renew, reuse & recycle, the greater the message to the government and the world.

Conventional Paper Brands

Avoid conventional tissue made by irresponsible brands. They use tree and then treat it with chemical ingredients. 

Tissue Paper from trees: The big paper brands, such as Charmin, Quilted Northern, and Angel Soft primarily use freshly cut trees.

Wood Fiber: wood fiber tissue derived from wood are responsible for 15% of global deforestation

Bleach: bleached with chlorine and toxins are environmental pollutants and hazards that could cause skin irritation as well. 

Fragrances: a mysterious mix of undisclosed ingredients often responsible for skin irritations and toxic reactions.

BPA: Bisphenol-A (BPA) and Bisphenol-S (BPS) are potentially toxic hormone-mimicking chemicals used in some plastics and plastic sealants. BPA has also been found in the ink on newspapers and receipts, leading to the presence of BPA in recycled paper products. 

Formaldehyde: It is usually added to conventional toilet paper to increase absorption. 

Colors added: unnecessary waste of resources and irritant agents and polluting factors. Choose white paper

PFAS: Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS) are a group of man-made chemicals that are often used in food packaging. These chemicals don’t break down and can accumulate in the human body over time and lead to adverse health effects. 

Greenwashing Paper Brands

In this category, there are brands that are still better than regular tree paper but if they truly want to be eco-friendly and offer better products, they should step up to the next step: safer brand

❌ Recycled Paper: Even if Post-consumer recycled toilet paper is a big improvement over paper made from virgin tree pulp because less water, less energy, and fewer chemicals are involved, there is an issue. Post-consumer recycled toilet paper is known to contain small amounts of bisphenol-A and bisphenol-S, better known as BPA and BPS, which is likely the result of the presence of thermal receipts in our paper recycling streams. While these BPA levels are generally under legal limits, we wanted toilet paper that was entirely BPA-free.

❌ PCF-free paper products (processed chlorine-free but may contain residuals from recycled toilet paper mix)

IF 98% OF TOILET PAPER ON RETAIL SHELVES CONTAINS CHLORINE BLEACH, is filled with lint, contains BPA derivatives, and is made from full-grown trees manufacturers chop down, THEN IT IS TIME WE COMPLETELY MOVE FORWARD 

Safer Paper Brands

If you too want to be part of the solution to protect the Earth and have fewer chemicals and toxins around, here is how to choose the most eco-friendly TP on the market: 

Tree-Free: avoid TP that is made with trees including the recycling ones, they are made by trees, and then they have been highly processed.

✅ FSC CertifiedFSC certification ensures that products come from responsibly managed forests that provide environmental, social, and economic benefits. FSC Certified toilet paper means the source comes from certified mills and farms. Purchasing FSC-certified paper helps protect the forests of local communities and even helps people rebuild their forest homes. Purchasing FSC-certified paper helps prevent deforestation, including the conversion of natural forests into plantations.
